不容置疑的一線海景,床鋪舒服,房間整潔,早餐出品不錯,每天呆在房間看日落。位置去哪裡都很方便。雖然沒有電梯,但樓梯夠闊,地毯很厚,本人一個女生提23kg上樓也還好。

A warm welcome. There was a plumbing problem with the room we had booked, so we were relocated to one on a higher floor, but still with a sea view. It was worth struggling up the extra 2 flights of stairs as we were given use of a lounge - and even a kitchen if needed. The breakfast was excellent and we would certainly stay again if we visit Aberystwyth

Fantastic place to stay, right on the sea front and close the shops, pubs and restaurants A great size room overlooking the bay and everything was spotlessly clean. Our host, Alison, was really helpful and we had a very good breakfast too! All in all a perfect stay.

Lovely B&B on the seafront in Aberystwyth. Walked here from the station after a trip on the Cambrian Line from Pwllheli. Took about 10 minutes. Warm room. Comfortable bed. Lovely view from the bay window. Worth paying extra for the view so you can sit in window and people watch

A great place to stay, clean warm ( rather small) room and lovely breakfast. Very convenient for the town centre. Bathroom was almost as big as the bedroom. Tea and coffe making facilities in the room.

The Helmsman is a traditional seaside guesthouse, in a great location with sea view rooms that have proper uninterrupted sea views, and comfy chairs in the bay windows in order to enjoy it. Immaculately clean and well presented. Efficient and friendly. Our second stay, no doubt we’ll be back.
